2nd generation Plant Sterols

Clinically proven cholesterol lowering effects

Triple Crown has developed a second-generation plant sterols known as Prolocol. Hitherto sterols have been too little soluble to be used without chemical modifications. We now manufacture a system with full solubility. The product is natural and clinically proven to reduce cholesterol in humans by more than 10 %. A person on a normal diet will consume 0,2-0,4 grams of plant sterols per day. When eaten in recommended doses of between 1 and 2 grams, plant sterols result in a measurable reduction in cholesterol after only 10 days. Margarines were the first generation of functional foods containing plant sterols.
